In the event you’re a fan of flicks, it is at all times a deal with to see a movie as talent-packed as “The Northman,” which stars Nicole Kidman, Anya Taylor-Pleasure, Willem Dafoe, Alexander Skarsgard and extra. It is about…properly, to be sincere, I’ve seen the trailer, however I nonetheless could not let you know what it is “about” — I type of suspect “plot” is not actually the purpose right here – nevertheless it’s from director Robert Eggers, who has finished some wild and trippy stuff, so I am certain it is nice.
However in the event you’re a fan of vogue, the true deal with comes when the press tour begins. Attending to see Taylor-Pleasure and Kidman on the identical pink carpet? Be nonetheless my coronary heart! The 2 appeared on the Los Angeles premiere of “The Northman” in fully completely different seems to be that someway nonetheless performed properly collectively.

On one aspect of the coin was Taylor-Pleasure, who went for a vaguely on-theme costume from (who else?) Dior. It is a plain, halter-necked robe that’s beautiful in its simplicity: The silhouette is completely fitted on the bodice after which gently drapes away from the physique, and the open again ends in a collection of fanned pleats. The statement-maker right here is the pearl-embellished neck piece, a kind of filigree collar that takes this costume to the subsequent degree. A thick swipe of black liner and a protracted braid end out the look.

Kidman went in the other way, working with stylist Julia von Boehm to place collectively an outfit round this Prada costume. The place Taylor-Pleasure went easy, that is something however: the robe is an virtually acid-green that is lined in a bronze mesh, embellished on the skirt and shoulders with crystals. Clearly, the function which stands out probably the most are the explosions of pink feathers from every arm, which, in a approach that solely Prada appears to have the ability to pull off, feels cool slightly than cloying. A pair of black Prada sandals match the mock neck of the costume, and her mirrored clutch provides a contact of visible curiosity that does not compete with the remainder.
The jury should still be out on whether or not I am going to see “The Northman” (I am unable to even work out from the trailer if it is scary, and I’m an enormous child) however I am formally keen to declare this pink carpet second with its stars a win.
